I believe there's a technical problem with creating a downloadable version of KODP, which is why, despite plans to do so, it never went on sale at Manifesto Games. I don't remember the details though.

Recently there's been a fair bit of buzz over the September 2008 launch of "Good Old Games", a site that allows peopleto buy and download old gaming titles that have passed the test of time - games like Fallout, Freespace 2 and Sacrifice,games that came out in the 90s but are still remembered fondly today. You pay between $5.99 and $9.99 USD for the rightto download and play the game. ...It strikes me that Kings of Dragon Pass would be an ideal addition to their library, and this could be a greatopportunity to add a new generation of players to the KoDP community and help David and company earn a bit more fromthis grand old title. :)The web site is here: http://www.gog.com/en/introA quote from the website that relates to selling them new games: "I'm a publisher and I want you to sell my rusty, oldgames, what shall I do?""Hmmm, I hope you’ve figured out that GOG.com stands for GOOD old games. If yes, then feel free to drop us a line atcontact_at_... and we'll figure something out together."-David
